Mr. Hall used to pet the hogs that he kept about the farm un til rlipv Spramp rpnr1f nnd ri has been in could go up to h that was lying down without creatmg.any alarm on the patt of the swine. He used to mark his hogs by cutting the tip ofl ot each ear, and when he would find one ly ing down that had not been marked he would pet it awhile, j then suddenly cut its ear off with his jackknife, which was al ways sharp. One day he found a hog asleep, as he supposed, and he clipped a piece out of one ear. The porker did not show any alarm and Mr. Hall operated on the other ear. To his sur prise, it laid quietly where it was. This made him angry at the fool hog for taking such a calamity so calmly, so he kicked it the hog was dead.
